Today, at 4:30 eastern time we will likely hear that Darrell Green is in the Hall of Fame, and Russ Grimm or Art Monk have been snubbed again for no understandable reason. I won’t go into the argument right now because it is obvious they are all deserving, and wouldn’t it be a hell of a party in Canton this summer if we could all go up and induct all three of them at once?
The comeback and subsequent re-retirement of Joe Gibbs has brought a lot of needed attention to just how good those 80′s Redskins teams were, and I’m predicting we get Monk and Green this year and Grimm in the next couple. I just can’t see the voters putting in all three at once. But we can hope.
After the announcement, we will celebrate the Redskin(s) that get in, and then next week, I will make a case for who didn’t make it. Here’s hoping the excellent guys at Art Monk HoF Campaign can shut their doors (or at least rename themselves for another Skin) today.
Come back here later to celebrate and share your memories for the guys who got in.
